In the Linking tab I've set "Stay-Down Level" to "Most" and played around with the "Minimum Stay-Down Clearance" value. Also played with rest machining's "ignore stock less than" value.

If your In-Process Stock is correct, all you have to do is tighten up the tolerance (I set it to .0005"):

Hmm. I've set tolerance to .0005" and both kept my smoothing at .001" and changed to .0005" and I'm still seeing similar retracts:

In that case, there are likely some toolpath improvements that I'm privy to that you may not be. Here's the file, at any rate..
